retro active law is fundamentally illegal.
And burning a flag is an expression of free speech.
As a gesture I find it fairly empty and silly, but if someone wants to deface or burn a flag, as long as they dont harm anyone else, as far as I am concerned its their own business.
If someone wanted to burn a Union Jack and I saw them I wouldnt care less, but I am not very patriotic (in fact, a lot of times I am kind of unpatriotic.. I nearly always want English sports teams to lose, I dont know, ever since I was a child I always have)
